Aroma-Bliss Yoga

Combining Ananda Yoga with high quality, therapeutic grade essential oils
can bring your experience to a whole new level! We'll breathe, stretch &
move into a higher level of awareness.

Essential oils can help relieve stress, improve sleep, reduce tension and
help quiet the mind. Ananda Yoga is known for its gentle, accessible,
meditative approach; distinct rest periods between postures; and the use
of affirmations. The synergistic effect of using them together is powerful,
transformative.

By taking time to focus on your feelings, you can enhance your life.
Therapeutic grade essential oils are excellent vehicles for this task
because their molecules pass directly to the emotional brain, allowing
us to make meaningful strides toward resolving past issues in a gentle
manner, clearing the way to manifest our true and highest potential.

All experience levels welcome; bring a glass or stainless-steel water
container; dress comfortably.

Instructor Sandi Russi, E-RYT and Certified Ananda Yoga Instructor, has

Yoga of Miracles

Sunday, October 22nd, 1:30-3:30 PM
Sacramento Yoga Center

What does pure non-dualism have to do with yoga & the body?

Explore yoga in alignment with A Course in Miracles. Students will
practice with a gentle approach, inviting Spirit into the process as
we use the body as a communication device & learning tool, cultivating
a deeper awareness of the Inner Presence, while drawing on Course
material to inspire our practice in a meditative approach.

Although gentle with plenty of rest periods, this class is best suited
to students with a minimum of 6 months' experience as the emphasis will
be on ACIM material rather than beginning yoga instruction.

Laughter Yoga & Gong Sound Bath Playshop

You are invited to journey into the sounds of JOY (Laughter) and BLISS (Gong)!

Please join us for a fun, deeply relaxing, healing and powerful experience!
You will leave high on endorphins and blissed out...

We will begin with an hour of Laughter Yoga exercises, movement, yogic breathing
and a Laughter meditation. You will learn to laugh more freely and easily and
reconnect with your inner child.

Laughter is scientifically proven to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, increase
oxygen flow to the brain, boost our immune system and so much more... You will
experience an instant mood lift and a powerful stress release!

The Laughter may help you to push through boundaries, open up and relax... so
you will be ready to receive the healing vibrations of the Gong.

We will end with a half hour Gong Bath where your body will be immersed in deeply
relaxing and healing sound waves.

The Gong bath is a very enjoyable experience that suspends the thought producing
activity of the mind and helps release built up stress. Not only will you hear
the sound waves but you will feel them too! The lower frequency sound waves act
in a similar way to deep tissue massage. The Gong can produce a non-ordinary
transcendent state of consciousness where true healing on all levels is possible.

This PLAYshop will be facilitated by Siri Ajeet & Manvir. Siri Ajeet is a certified
Laughter Yoga Leader who runs the Sacramento Laughter Yoga Club and a Kundalini Yoga
Instructor. Manvir is a longtime Kundalini Yoga Instructor who plays the Gong skillfully.

No experience necessary. All that is required is a playful attitude and a willingness
to receive.

subtle energies of the inner spine. Learn to direct the newly awakened
energy inwards and upwards to become more aware of your own inner peace
and joy.

renewal by using blankets, bolsters, straps, and other props to safely support the
body in various postures, allowing the practitioner to move toward a state of balance.
